Coroner J.J. Orelli today described the deaths of Mrs. Julia Ann Lorain, 75, and her husband Charles Alfred Lorain, 75, Green Valley rancher, as a mercy slaying and suicide.

The two sons of the couple had grown and gone from the ranch in Green Valley, which Lorain homesteaded more than fifty years ago. Early yesterday Lorain went to his wife's bedroom put the revolver to her head and pressed the trigger. She died instantly.- TELEPHONED TO SON-
Then, without haste, Lorain straightened up the house, fed the livestock, tied up the dog and telephoned to his son, Dan Lorain of 2035 Markham Way, Sacramento. "Your mother has passed away." he said. "Get Warren (the other son, also of Sacramento) and come home.- PENNED TWO NOTES-
Lorain then penned two notes, one containing instructions on collecting rents due from tenants in nearby Folsom. He added a postscript: "Keep the dog tied up. He eats the eggs." In the other he wrote: "I have done all I can and can do no more. I want to end her suffering." Then Lorain lay down beside the body of his wife and killed himself. The brothers went to Green Valley and found the bodies of their parents in bed, the gun between them.
